Removing the MLG DQ, if he didn't compete it shouldn't be listed. Also removed Melee and PM mains, they shouldn't be listed unless he actually competed in those games, removed two of the linked videos are no longer up, and removed results tag since this is a fair amount of results, with nothing else put in the results reasoning as for why it's too little. Looked him up on Smashboards and seen him basically stating too that he was retiring from Smash right after Smash 4's release.

'''Legan''' | '''Legan''' was a ''[[Brawl]]'' {{SSBB|Link}} main from [[Missouri]]. He was known as one of the best Link players in ''Brawl''{{'}}s history, with him often being considered the second best under {{Sm|KirinBlaze}} for most of ''Brawl''{{'}}s competitive life, with Legan achieving results at large [[Midwest]] regionals playing only Link that few other players of bottom tier characters could replicate. He was additionally a prominent member of the Link community on [[AllisBrawl]], where the world's best Links would discuss his [[metagame]], and was featured as a VIP member of both PJL and PJL2 ("Project Link" Combo videos, featuring all the best Links in the world, though these videos are no longer online). | ||
He started out playing ''Melee'' with Link | He started out playing ''[[Melee]]'' with Link, looking up to players like {{sm|Aniki}} and {{sm|Germ}}. In his early competitive career in ''Brawl'', he watched the Japanese player {{sm|Hashimo}} a lot and adapted that playstyle as his basis. Through the years, he practiced Link through Wi-Fi and offline smashfests, learning all of Link's options and when to use them most effectively. | ||
He | Legan would stop actively competing in ''Brawl'' by the end of 2012, and when ''[[Smash 4]]'' released, he stated he wasn't going to get into the game as much as he did with ''Brawl'' and had more difficulty finding time to travel to tournaments at his age. He reiterated that while he had no intention to buy a [[Wii U]], he would play ''Smash 4'' with friends and might attend a tournament or two, but he would not be seen again in competitive ''Smash'' after 2014.<ref>https://smashboards.com/threads/link-checked-the-thread-wow-this-is-a-nice-thread.370194/page-23#post-18046384</ref> | ||
